Campbell trial date set for alleged role in NMFA scandal

Greg Campbell
Former New Mexico Finance Authority controller Greg Campbell is scheduled to stand trial in February 2013 on charges related to his alleged role in a fraudulent audit scandal that prompted an agency shake-up. 
Making his first court appearance Monday since being arrested Aug. 8, Campbell sat alone in the courtroom before a brief hearing in front of District Court Judge Stephen Pfeffer, who announced the trial date. 
Campbell, through his public defender, waived his right to a formal arraignment Monday and remains free on a $20,000 bond with certain release conditions. 
Campbell left his job with the Finance Authority in June, shortly before the falsified audit was discovered. He is the only current or former NMFA employee facing charges in connection with the audit scandal.
